With the Electric Picnic line up announced this week, we found it very difficult to look beyond the acts announced for this week’s Saturday Warm-Up Tracks. So here’s a smidgen of what you can expect down in Laois at the summer’s end.

Fatboy Slim – ‘Rockafeller Skank’
This song will forever remind us of easier times playing FIFA ’99 on the Playstation. The first FIFA not to feature Michael Owen with a fully grown lumberjack’s beard, at least we recall him having a lovely beard.
The Strypes – ‘Blue Collar Jane’
When we were busy banging in screamers with Jesper Blomqvist and Christopher Wreh, these young Cavan lads were just taking their first steps. Those first steps turned into very large steps and The Strypes have made massive strides to become one of the most talked about bands at the moment.
Talking Heads – ‘Psycho Killer’
We tried to resist, we swear. No we didn’t. Tough!
